It doesn't matter how many votes he got, only that he won. Would hardly call refusing to seat an elected official a "molehill."

I agree - though if it is just a few local officials acting foolishly, and who will soon be put in their place, then there's nothing much to worry about. Society can handle a few dummies acting in character.

If, on the other hand, it was happening more broadly - say, for example, a national election, with officials at the highest level of government acting in this way - then there would be much greater cause for concern.

And where did they refuse?

It's a dumbass game of telephone. Idiocracy incarnate.
